Replying to Which ski would be a better buy? Need help.

imarookie:
Sorry for one of these threads, but I wanted to know what you guys' thoughts were on these two different skis, and which i should buy. Im 6'4" and about 185 pounds. I am looking for a ski that could handle park, and a little bit of all mountain as well, so anywhere from 60-80% park, and 20-40% all mountain. I already have hellbents, and a pair of silencers as well.

First is the CoreUPT Candid Yard ski. It is 181 cm, and 230 dollars. It's on level nine sports. Here is the link: http://www.levelninesports.com/Coreupt-2010-Candide-Yard-All-Mountain-Twin-Tip-Skis. I'm not sure what year they are, but they are new.

Second is a pair of 181 Armada AR7s, and they are about 175 dollars. They are used, and show normal signs of wear and tear apparently. They have been mounted once, and I am not sure where, or what binding was used.

Also, where would you recommend mounting the skis that you suggest I get? I appreciate the help. I pretty much give 10/10s to all good answers.
